Sensitivity of Ofdm/cdma to Carrier Phase Jitter
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the influence of carrier phase jitter on the performance of an OFDM/CDMA system. This carrier phase jitter reduces the performance of the system, defined as the signal-to-noise ratio at the input of the decision device. When all users have the same power level and phase jitter spectrum, it is shown that for the highest load, the degradation only depends on the jitter variance but not on the specific shape of the jitter spectrum.

Sensitivity of OFDM and MC-CDMA to Carrier Phase Errors
In this contribution, we investigate the effect of carrier phase errors on the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and multicarrier code-division multiple access (MC-CDMA). We show that OFDM and MC-CDMA have essentially the same sensitivities to carrier phase errors. A constant carrier phase offset yields no degradation of the system performance. We show that OFDM a...
متن کاملPerformance Degradation of OFDM and MC-CDMA to Carrier Phase Jitter
This paper analyses the effect of carrier phase jitter on the performance of OFDM and MC-CDMA waveforms. Assuming a multicarrier downlink through an AWGN channel, we investigate the impact of jitter phase models on the SNR degradation. To this aim, we propose to consider a small random process, a gaussian process then a rayleigh process to model this jitter. Different performance degradation ex...
متن کاملSynchronization sensitivity of multicarrier systems
In this paper, we give an overview of the sensitivity of a number of multicarrier systems to carrier and clock synchronization errors. A comparison is made between orthogonal frequency division multiplexing/multiple access (OFDM(A)) and two combinations of the orthogonal multicarrier technique and the code-division multiple access (CDMA) technique, i.e., multicarrier CDMA (MC-CDMA), where the s...
متن کاملThe Sensitivity of MC-CDMA to Synchronisation Errors
In this contribution, we investigate the sensitivity of MC-CDMA systems to synchronisation errors. We show that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the MC-CDMA system at the input of the decision device in the presence of a carrier frequency offset or a clock frequency offset is a rapidly decreasing function of the number of carriers. For a maximal load, carrier phase jitter and timing jitter gi...
متن کاملAn Overview of MC-CDMA Synchronisation Sensitivity
This paper presents an overview of the effect of synchronisation errors on MCCDMA performance in downlink communications. We distinguish two types of synchronisation errors: carrier phase errors and timing errors. We show that the MC-CDMA system is very sensitive to a carrier frequency offset or a clock frequency offset. For a maximal load, carrier phase jitter and timing jitter give rise to a ...
